1. Companies regularly charge consumers $10 to $15 per month for ONE IPv4 static address.

2. It is common in the real estate business in meat space for a broker to take one month's rent as a fee.

3. A /24 allows over 250 nodes (hosts, PCs, etc.) to be addressed.

4. At $12.50 per month that is $3,125 per month in revenue from address leasing.

5. Applying #2 and #4, one would assume the annual lease fee would be about $3,000, not $400.

Does ICANN get the balance of the $3,000 - $400 = $2,600 per year per /24 ?....or the U.S. Government...?

Also...what is LACNIC paying the U.S. Government for address space ?
